That certain night, the night we met
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angels dining at the Ritz
And a nightingale sang in Berkley Square
I may be right, I may be wrong
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
That when you turn'd and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in Berkley Square

The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know that we were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And when we kissed and said goodnight
A nightingale sang in Berkley, nightingale sang in Berkley
Nightingale sang in Berkley
Square
